Overview of 4 West 16th Street

4 West 16th Street is a ten-story, 16-unit co-op situated a block west of Union Square, within a quick subway ride to both Downtown and Midtown. The pre-war building features a key-locked elevator, a laundry room, a renovated lobby, a live-in superintendent, access via intercom, and resident storage. Select units feature barrel-vaulted ceilings, which, like the façade’s arches, pilasters and moldings, evoke the neighborhood’s turn-of-the-century charm. The quaint, tree-lined residential block is in the heart of Union Square near the Greenmarket, Fifth Avenue, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and some of the world's best shopping and restaurants. Greenwich Village, the Meatpacking District, and Chelsea are nearby.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "prime Fifth Avenue area" residence offers a "coveted location" just "steps from Union Square Park." The building features a "live-in super" and practical amenities including storage and laundry. While the "stringent board" requires substantial post-closing assets, residents enjoy the "designer shopping at their doorstep" and "trendy dining scene" in this "sought-after neighborhood."

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
